| The Quadrantid
Meteor Shower happens every year in January. This year, it
happens on the evening of January 3rd and morning of January 4th.
The peak of the shower happens at 2:00am on the 4th. I hope that by
telling you about it today, you can make plans to watch it. Most meteor showers are actually dust from a comet, but they have determined that the Quadrantids come from the asteroid 2003 EH1. Why should we care about an old piece of rock hurtling through space, emitting almost impossible to see, tiny points of light? What is nature trying to tell us through this almost unnoticeable event? It is now known through Quantum Physics that every particle of matter exerts an effect on every other particle that exists. While astrology used to be discounted as just some new age fluff, it is now totally conceivable that the stars and planets do exert an influence on us. An easily understood example of this is the fact that the magnetic pull of our moon causes the tides to rise and fall. As humans, our bodies are about 75% water. If the magnetic pull of the moon can move a whole ocean, it can certainly causes shifts in the fluids of our bodies which change the way we think and feel. However, on the quantum level, every tiny bit of energy has an effect. Every object that exists emits an energy field, with living things emitting a much stronger one. Our thoughts and intentions produce directed energy, and this energy is pointed toward the object of our intention. This makes us powerful co-creators of whatever we choose to imagine. When you see those tiny shooting stars, realize that you have the divine spark within you. You may feel that you are small and insignificant, but you share in co-creating the reality that we all live in. You are part of the organism which many have called "God" or "Goddess" and which recreates our world as it changes every day. If a tiny little piece of rock whistling through the atmosphere can make a shooting star, how much more can you, a thinking, feeling, intentional creature, accomplish? You needn't feel your contributions will be small or unimportant, for any act, done with intention, has a purpose and value. And everything that you think and feel and do brings you into alignment with that which you will attract in the future. Every single thought you think is important. Today, try viewing your thoughts and actions in this way. Every thought and action is important, even the seemingly inconsequential things. How do my thoughts effect someone else? How do my thoughts effect me? How do other people's thoughts affect me? You may think that your thoughts do not affect anyone else because no one else knows what you are thinking. The energy of your thoughts does touch and affect others, however. Try this experiment. Get several people together in a group. Choose one person to demonstrate this with and ask them to leave the room and go somewhere that they cannot hear what you are going to say. Tell the other people that remain that when the person comes back into the room, you are going to give a signal, such as touching your ear, and when you do, you want everyone to think mean, hateful thoughts about that person. Then tell them that when you touch your ear again, they are to switch and think only positive, loving, peaceful thoughts about the other person. Have the person come back into the room. Allow few seconds for people to focus these thoughts on the person. Then ask the person to raise one of their arms out beside them at shoulder height. and hold it there. Tell the person that you are going to try to push their arm down, and that they should try to resist you and keep their arm at shoulder height. Then try to push the arm down and see what happens. Then touch your ear and allow about another few seconds for the people to focus the kind and loving thoughts on the person. Ask the person to hold their arm out again and try to push their arm down again. See the difference? When you are focusing mean, unkind, hateful thoughts on another person, this affects their energy field and makes them weaker, which is why their arm was so easy to push down. When you are thinking kind and loving thoughts about a person, this makes them stronger and their arms is much more difficult to push down. So even if the people who are around you do not know what you are thinking about them, it still affects them. Why does this matter? Because there are many, many things that we cannot see that affect us.: the magnetism of the stars and planets, our thoughts and feelings, the weather, the energy fields of rocks, trees and plants, the energy fields of electrical appliances, the energy of foods, drinks, and food additives....the list goes on and on. There is nothing so small and insignificant that it does not have an effect. This means, we must be responsible for our thoughts and feelings and how they effect the rest of the world. It is not just a matter of having positive thoughts because it's better for US, it's also not good for the rest of the world either. So accept the fact that you are an important person, you are NOT small and insignificant, When you see those little shooting stars tomorrow, realize that, although they are passing unnoticed by most people, they are still causing an effect. So are you. |
